The picture is not showing on either end. Note the SLASH MARK "/". It signifies the END of the command. Somehow it is in the command located before the URL and it belongs in the one after the URL. Edit the above message and manually delete the first SLASH MARK and add one to the end like this [/img].

Also the URL you used was incorrect. At first it looks right, but it's actually the URL for the WEB page instead of the graphic. To get the correct URL, "RIGHT-CLICK" on the photo and select PROPERTIES from the menu. The properties window that pops up will display the Address (URL) for the picture that you need to use. The correct URL for the picture you tried to display above is: http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/40233e9e ... ABIG4Ln0aW

I hope all that would like to display photos or graphics of any kind in their message posts are following along. Adding a graphic can be a little tricky at first. But once you figure it out, it's not so bad and it adds a thousand words to your post.

Try to keep graphic file sizes small, say 10-25k or so. Keep in mind that adding graphics will cause the messages to load slower and most folks still use dial-up connections from home. So if you have a lot of pictures or if you have even a few large files, it would be better to provide a URL link to your own webpage than to bog down the board. This will help to fkeep our bourd running smoothly.

Hey Vinsect I see you figured it out. I saw the photo on your post yesterday, but now I can't. Yahoo Photos has changed the URL to your pictures (the URL link to your WEB page stayed the same). I updated the link in my previous post. But if they're going to continue to change URL paths to the photos, then Yahoo Photos will not be a good place to store pictures that you want to display directly into posted messages. You can still provide a link to the Yahoo page!
